Lita once again found herself sitting alone in the Diva's locker room. Being alone with only her thoughts she allowed herself to let out a few tears. She could not believe how wrong her life had gone so quickly. One minute she and Matt were a happy couple having fun with each other, the next their lives were turned upside down by Kane. She should have known that making a deal with him wouldn't change anything, but she was so desperate to have her normal life back that when he offered her a way out she felt she had no choice but to take it. If only she knew then what she knew now.
She placed a hand on her stomach as the tears fell. It just wasn't fair; this wasn't how things were supposed to be. Lita always imagined that when she became pregnant it would be with Matt's child. They would go shopping for the baby's furniture together and talk about possible names just like every other normal couple. Never did she think she would be forced to carry the child of a man she not only didn't love, but hated more than anything. A man so cruel he would threaten to never leave her alone until she gave in and let him have his way with her. If that wasn't bad enough, now she was going to have to marry this man. Matt did his best to win for her, to try and save her from the man that not only ruined her life, but his own. Deep down she knew Matt still loved her, but she also couldn't shake the thoughts that maybe his heart wasn't really in the match. "No" she quietly said to herself, she couldn't think like that. Of course that wasn't the case.
Lita was so wrapped up in her thoughts she didn't hear the door of the locker room open. The person who entered was moving as quietly as possible so as not to be heard. Once they were only a few steps behind Lita the door opened again, this time more loudly. Instinctively, Lita turned to see who had entered. As soon as she turned she was met with a baseball bat to the stomach, causing her to fall to the floor screaming in pain. The attacker quickly ran out of the room, pushing the entering Stacy Keibler out of the way as they did so. Stacy immediately started to scream for help and ran to Lita, who was still on the floor holding her stomach and beginning to bleed heavily.
It was only a matter of minutes before paramedics and police arrived. While the EMTs prepared to bring Lita to the hospital, Stacy was brought into Eric Bischoff's office for questioning for the police report.
